Ohhhhh I wish I was an Oscar Meyer Weiner.........

Yes it is true......................the Weinermobile came to see us off! We leave Fernandina Beach, FL at first light tomorrow morning 12/1. we will be headed south to Pine Island, just north of St Augustine. We met a couple today that is on the same schedule in a Westsail 32 from Maine. We will travel together and assist one another. Mary Rose is ready to cast off. The new dinghy is on a tow line and holding good air. We are sooooooooooooooo ready to cast off and be on the open water even if it is the Intercoastal Waterway (ICW) We expect to make about 50 miles tomorrow. We will update as we are able.

Best of luck on your maiden voyage that marks the start of a journey of a lifetime. Wishing you both good fortune on your adventure--and many, many days of downhill sailing. "Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore, dream ... discover." --Cp--
